What we're working on right now.
-
Your notes, delivered into Notion
Connect a Notion workspace once and your notes land there the same way they already land in a vault or Apple Notes.
Next
Planned, and coming after Now.
-
Your product names, spelled your way
Tell Oris once how your company, your products and your teammates are written, and every summary uses it instead of what the transcriber heard.
-
Keep the summary, let the transcript go
Drop the transcript from a note once the summary has landed, or let it expire after a while — notes stay readable, and the recording is still yours.
-
Every action item, in one place
The open action items from all your meetings collected on one surface, so nothing said in a call gets lost inside a note.
-
A what's-new you can browse in the app
Update notes now appear right in the updater, and the full history lives on this site's changelog — next is a browsable what's-new inside Oris itself.
Later
On the map, a little further out.
-
Live transcription
ProWatch the transcript build as the conversation happens, not only after you stop.
-
Per-speaker labels
ProTell the people on the other side of the call apart, instead of pooling everyone under one label.
-
Encrypted recordings
ProThe audio and transcripts Oris keeps on disk, encrypted at rest — so a copied drive or an old backup gives nothing away.
-
Run your own follow-ups after every note
A hook that fires when a note lands — a Shortcut, a script, or your own tools through MCP — so Oris fits the rest of your workflow.
-
Notes that file themselves
Tags chosen from what was said, so Apple Notes and Obsidian can organize and find your notes without you lifting a finger.
-
Jump from a claim to the moment it was said
ProEach point in a structured note links to the line in the transcript it came from, so you can check the source in one click.
October 2026
-
Re-summarize notes in Apple Notes, and imports
Re-summarize… now works on recordings delivered to Apple Notes and on imported recordings and transcripts, in your vault, a Markdown folder or Apple Notes. Oris replaces the summary in the note itself and leaves the transcript, and anything you wrote around it, as it was. For an import, the new summary is made from the transcript Oris saved when it landed, so the file you imported doesn't need to still be there.
-
Recover a quick note that couldn't be saved
When a quick note can't be transcribed or saved, Oris keeps the recording. Its message now has an Import button that turns the recording into a note in your usual destination, so you no longer need Obsidian for this. The recording also stays listed in Recordings after the message is gone, with Import, Show in Finder and Delete audio, until you import or delete it.
-
Short recordings no longer get placeholder summaries · minor
On a very short recording, the summary could repeat Oris's own example lines, such as "Decision made and rationale if stated", as if they came from your call. Oris now removes those lines and leaves out any section that had nothing else in it. A section your template requires stays, with None under it.
-
A Pro section with your plan and referral link
Oris now has a Pro section in Settings that shows your plan and your referral link. Click Copy link to put your link on the clipboard. If your license was issued before referral links existed, the first click asks for the email address you signed up with. It replaces Get My Referral Link in the Help menu.
-
Quick notes say where a sent capture went · minor
A quick note you sent to Apple Notes or a Markdown folder was still described as sent to your vault. Oris now names where it really went in the delete confirmation, on the sent marker in the list, in that marker's VoiceOver label and on the line under the note. The error messages for sending and deleting a quick note name the right place too, whether that's Apple Notes, your vault or your folder.
-
One menu for each recording's actions
A row of icons used to sit beside each recording in Recordings. Now there's an Open note button and a … button, whose menu holds whichever of the other actions apply to that recording: Share, Show in Finder, Open log, Split, Re-summarize, Retry summary, Retry delivery and Delete audio. Right-clicking anywhere on a recording opens the same menu. While Oris retries or re-summarizes a recording, the recording's status line shows which of the two is running.
-
Search and Retry all failed fit in All recordings · minor
Filtering All recordings to failed summaries cut off the search field on the left and Retry all failed on the right. Oris now puts the search field on a line of its own with the filter beneath it, and Retry all failed at the top of the sheet next to Close, so everything fits and nothing moves when you switch filters.
-
Recording progress moves to Recordings
When you stop recording, you'll find the recording at the top of Recordings instead of a progress line under the record button. Its row reads Transcribing and then Summarizing, and it becomes the finished recording once the note is ready. While a note is being made, a pulsing dot appears beside Recordings in the left-hand rail, and when the note is done, a check or a warning takes its place until you open Recordings. If your notes go to Apple Notes, the dot keeps pulsing until the note reaches Notes.
-
Import audio files and transcripts in the Oris app
You don't need the Obsidian plugin anymore to bring in a recording or a transcript you already have. Drag audio files or transcripts from Finder onto the import area above the record button, or click the import area to choose them. Each file gets its own row in Recordings while Oris works on it, and the finished note goes wherever your meeting notes go: Obsidian, Apple Notes, or a Markdown folder. Oris won't offer to delete the audio of an imported file, because that file is your original. If you quit Oris while files are still importing, Oris asks first.
-
Split recordings in the Oris app
Until now, you could only split a recording from the Obsidian plugin. In Recordings, open the … menu on a finished recording and choose Split. Oris shows the recording as a bar above its transcript and marks the places where one meeting likely ended, both on the bar and in the transcript. You can turn off any of those marks, or add your own split point on the bar or between any two sentences. Each part becomes a separate note with its own summary, in Obsidian, Apple Notes, or a Markdown folder.
-
Oris checks your Pro license once a day
At launch and once a day after that, Oris sends the Pro license stored on your Mac, along with the app's version number, to the Oris license server and gets an up-to-date copy back. That way, a change to your license, such as a renewal, reaches your Mac without you having to click a new license link. A Mac with no license never makes this check, and if the server can't be reached, your current license stays as it is.
-
Orange main buttons and easier-to-read warnings · minor
The main button on each screen is now Oris orange, whatever accent color your Mac uses. With the Graphite accent, that button used to look like every other button. Warning text is also easier to read, in a deeper orange in light mode and a softer orange in dark mode.
-
Obsidian plugin fixes · minor
If your meetings go to Apple Notes or a Markdown folder but you still use the Oris plugin in Obsidian, updating Oris also updates the plugin in every vault where it's already installed. In the same setup, joining recordings from Obsidian puts the transcript in the note you picked in the Join window. Before, the transcript went to Apple Notes or your Markdown folder, and the note you picked stayed empty. When Obsidian starts and there's an orphaned recording or a failed summary, Oris suggests the Oris: Recover orphaned recordings or Oris: Retry failed summaries command from the command palette, instead of a command to paste into Terminal.
-
Obsidian plugin status updates without a restart · minor
When you enable or reload the Oris plugin in Obsidian and then switch back to Oris, you'll see the plugin under Setup on the General tab right away, without restarting Oris. Clicking the refresh button (↻) under Setup also refreshes the Destination section.
-
Clearer Quick Notes send button and delivery status · minor
In Quick Notes, the send button is now labeled Send to vault, Send to folder, or Send to Notes, depending on where your quick notes go, instead of always mentioning the vault, and the label after sending and the tooltips match it. Separately, when Oris can't check whether any notes are still waiting to be delivered, it now says so on the General tab. Before, it showed nothing there, which looked the same as having nothing waiting.
September 2026
-
Summaries from Ollama thinking models no longer come back empty · minor
When an Ollama model that thinks before it answers, such as Qwen3 or DeepSeek-R1, spends all its room thinking and writes nothing, Oris now asks it once more with much more room inside the same time limit, and if it still writes nothing the note says why.
-
Plainer wording throughout Oris · minor
The app, the menu bar, the Obsidian plugin and the text Oris adds to your notes now use shorter, plainer sentences. A few lines that pointed to the wrong settings tab or described Oris inaccurately are also corrected.
-
A docked MacBook with the lid closed now records instead of refusing to start · minor
Oris no longer refuses to record when your MacBook is docked with its lid closed and its sound set to the built-in speakers.
-
Put an interrupted meeting back together, in the app
A stop pressed instead of mute, a restart for an update or a crash halfway through can leave one meeting as several short recordings, each with a note about only its own stretch. Oris: Join recordings… in Obsidian's command palette now works in the app you installed rather than only in a developer checkout: pick the pieces in order, and Oris joins them into one recording beside the originals, which it leaves untouched, and transcribes and summarizes that as one meeting. The joining takes a second or two even for hours of audio because nothing is re-encoded, your side and theirs stay apart, and each piece keeps its own timing, so if your microphone came up a moment late in the second piece your words still line up with what you were answering. A piece from a recording that crashed is read up to the last audio it saved; one that died in its first second or so has no audio in it, and the join says which file that is instead of guessing. Recordings made from this version on also save their first audio after about one second instead of five.
-
Notifications say what happened, then what to do · minor
Every macOS notification Oris posts now has a short title that says what happened and a body that says what to do next, in plain words; when a notification appears and what clicking it does have not changed.
-
The transcribing percentage hides on short recordings · minor
A recording under about two minutes no longer shows a transcribing percentage that could only jump in a couple of big, misleading leaps, and the "Warn me before recording stops" row in Recordings settings no longer wraps its label onto two lines.
-
A forgotten quick note or dictation stops itself after 30 seconds of silence · minor
If you start a quick note or a dictation with press to start and then get pulled away, it no longer keeps listening until you remember it. After 30 seconds of silence it stops by itself and lands exactly as if you had pressed the hotkey again, so nothing you said is lost. Hold to talk is never stopped this way, and meeting recordings keep their own, longer timeout. You can change the time or turn it off under General, in While you speak.
-
The destination picker can no longer save a choice you didn't make · minor
Two rare timing bugs in Settings → General → Destination are fixed. If you browsed a second Apple Notes account and then moved away from the section and back, Oris could show that account's folders under the account it had saved — and save the mismatched pair, which then fails at delivery time. And if you started a new file-name or note-name edit in the moment after a previous destination change had saved but before the row finished catching up, that edit could be dropped without a word. Oris now re-reads the folders for the account it restores, refuses an account and folder that do not belong together, and never lets an older save discard a newer edit.
-
A failed summary now reaches Apple Notes instead of getting stuck · minor
The warning Oris writes when a summary fails is a quoted block with a blank line and some bold inside it, and Apple Notes stores that differently from how Oris wrote it — so Oris's own check that the note came back as written failed every time, and the delivery stopped with a warning even though the note in Apple Notes was whole. Oris now writes the warning in the shapes Notes keeps. If you already have one of these stuck from an earlier build, the note in Apple Notes is complete; acknowledging the delivery clears it.
-
Start the next recording while the last one is still being written
Until now the app's record button went grey from the moment you stopped until your note was finished, which on a long meeting could mean minutes of not being able to start the next one — even though the menu bar and the Obsidian ribbon let you. Now the button comes straight back. The line under it keeps naming the earlier recording's stage, Transcribing with its percentage or Summarizing, until the new recording starts and takes over with its clock; the earlier one finishes on its own, its notice still arrives, and each note lands in its own place. Nothing about where your notes go has changed.
-
Retry no longer says 'saved to a new note' when it appended · minor
When a note in Apple Notes is being edited elsewhere, Oris retries the append three times and then stops fighting it: it saves your transcript into a fresh note and tells you which one. A Retry pressed by hand in a narrow window — after Oris had decided to make that fresh note but before it managed to — appended to the busy note anyway while the banner still announced a new note, so you went looking for your writing somewhere it had never been. The automatic retry and the Retry button now decide this the same way, through one shared rule, so the banner always describes what actually happened.
-
A retry that comes back empty leaves your warning alone · minor
Two ways a failed summary could quietly stop being recoverable are closed. A retry whose model answers with nothing but blank space now reports itself as unsuccessful and leaves the ⚠️ block in your note untouched, instead of replacing it with an empty summary and clearing the failure — the block is what tells you a summary is still missing and where the Retry button comes from. And a recording made without Obsidian keeps its retry for as long as the failure is pending: Oris used to forget where that recording's note landed after twenty further recordings, which quietly expired the one-click recovery.
-
An import tells you when its summary fails
Importing an audio file or a transcript while your summary provider is down used to land a note that looked complete but had no summary and no sign one had been attempted. The transcript still lands in full — that has not changed — but now the note carries a ⚠️ block where the summary would have been, naming the provider and what went wrong, the completion notice says the summary failed instead of "transcript only", and the import shows up in Recordings with a warning rather than a tick. Fix the provider and import the file again to get the summary.
-
Share on an Apple Notes recording opens the note in Notes · minor
A note delivered to Apple Notes has no file on your Mac to hand the share sheet, so the Share button on those Recordings rows used to sit grayed out, and the only thing telling you why was a tooltip you had to hover to find. It now does the useful thing: clicking it opens the note in Apple Notes, frontmost and scrolled into view, and you share it from there. Rows whose note landed as a Markdown file keep the normal share sheet.
-
Open log: the app shows you the lines about the recording that failed
Wherever Oris used to say "check transcribe.log", it now has an Open log button that shows just that recording's lines from the log — warnings highlighted, with Copy for a support email and Open full log for the whole file. The Awaiting delivery section can now land a transcript that was saved before any delivery was attempted with one click, and the recordings history has a Retry all failed button that works through every failed summary one at a time. The recovery surfaces no longer name a terminal command.
-
Two stages after a recording, and a real percentage for the first
After you stop a recording, the status line used to walk through five different labels — preparing the model, transcribing, downloading a model, summarizing, finishing up — and none of them said how far along it was. It now says two things, in the Oris app, the menu bar and the Obsidian status pill alike: "Transcribing", with a percentage that climbs as the engine works through the recording, and then "Summarizing…". A model that has to warm up or download first simply sits under one of those two words until the work moves on. Summarizing shows no percentage on purpose: an on-device model streams against a token budget it rarely uses in full and a cloud provider returns the whole summary at once, so any number there would be a guess.
-
A note Oris is still delivering no longer looks like a failure · minor
Finishing a recording into Apple Notes used to flash an orange error across the Recordings section for a second or two — “delivery was interrupted” or “delivery failed (permission)” — and then clear itself. Nothing was ever wrong: Apple Notes can only be written by the app itself, so a finished recording hands its note to Oris and Oris lands it moments later, and both surfaces were reading that handover literally. Now they read it for what it is. While Oris is delivering, the item and its history row say “finishing delivery to Apple Notes…” in ordinary grey, with no warning colour and no buttons to press, and clear themselves when the note lands. A delivery that genuinely fails — permission turned off, an attempt Oris has given up on, an outcome it can’t confirm — looks exactly as it did before, with the same words and the same retry.
-
Lowering audio retention asks before it marks anything for deletion · minor
Typing a smaller number into "Keep audio for" now shows a confirmation first, naming how many recordings (and how much space) the shorter window makes eligible for deletion and that they go the next time a recording starts. Cancel keeps the setting you had; raising the number or setting it to 0 never asks.
-
The idle record button says what it does · minor
The record button at the bottom of the rail used to sit silent until a recording started — now it carries a small "Start recording" caption underneath, in the same spot the elapsed clock and the pipeline stages take over once a meeting is running. A destination that needs attention still takes that line first, so "Check destination" is never hidden behind the new hint. Separately, the auto-stop-on-silence setting's "Warn me before it stops" now reads "Warn me before recording stops", so it is clear what it means without the surrounding context.
-
Update notes are a sentence per change, with a link to the rest · minor
Checking for updates used to drop the FULL /changelog write-up for every change into the small update dialog — one entry alone ran to nearly two thousand bytes of text. It now shows one honest sentence per change, and a link at the bottom to the release's own blog post (or the changelog, when there isn't one) for anyone who wants the rest.
-
Two Obsidian dialogs stop saying things that were not true · minor
Importing a transcript into an existing note offers a destination called "Replace marker in existing note", and it now does that: if the note still carries the marker a recording left behind, the import lands in that spot rather than at the bottom of the note. A note with no marker still gets the import appended at the end, and a marker belonging to a recording that is still running is left alone, so an import can never take the place your meeting is about to land in. Separately, the split dialog used to say each segment was summarized "via Azure" while it worked, which was true only for the few people who had entered Azure credentials — on the default setting the summaries are made on your own Mac. It no longer names a provider it cannot know.
-
The settings footer now shows the patch version · minor
The Oris version at the bottom of the settings rail used to read the same number across every build in a release — "Oris 0.11" whether you had the first cut or a later patch. It now shows the exact build you're running, like "Oris 0.11.2", so you can tell at a glance whether you're on the latest patch without hovering for the tooltip.
-
One recording control, at the bottom of the rail
The strip along the top of the Oris window is gone, and everything it did moved into the left-hand rail: a single large record button under the seven sections and above the search field, in reach from whichever section you are looking at. It carries no words — a record circle that becomes a stop square, with a red ring that breathes while capture is running — and one line centred underneath says the rest, when there is anything to say. Idle it says nothing at all. While a meeting runs it is the elapsed time, directly under the button so the two read as one control. Afterwards it names the stage the transcript is at, and then becomes a one-click Open note that takes you to the finished note and clears itself once you have. It is the same single recording every other surface sees, so you can start it here and stop it from Obsidian, or the other way round.
-
The ⓘ hints open when you click them
The small ⓘ beside a setting used to show its explanation only if you held the pointer still over it, which meant clicking the icon — the thing a Mac teaches you to do, because that is how the help buttons in System Settings work — did nothing at all. Now it opens on click, the way it should have, and stays open until you click the ⓘ again, click somewhere else, or press Esc. It is reachable from the keyboard too, so Return or Space opens it without a pointer, and VoiceOver reads the explanation straight off the icon. This covers every ⓘ in the app, not just the ones in the settings sections.
-
Re-summarizing a note works in the app you installed · minor
Re-summarize — the action that rewrites a landed summary with your own instructions — showed up on eligible recordings in every build, but the script behind it was never packaged into the app, so clicking it did nothing outside a developer checkout. It ships now, and the button does what it says.
-
Splitting a recording into several notes now works in the app
One recording that turned out to hold two or three back-to-back meetings can be carved into a note each, with its own summary and its own title — and unlike before, that works in the app you installed rather than only in a developer checkout. Obsidian's command palette gains Oris: Split a recording…, which proposes cuts at long silences and at the phrases people say when a meeting ends, lets you drop your own while you listen, and lands each stretch as its own note with timestamps restarting at zero. The merged original is filed into your vault's _archive folder with links to everything the split produced, so a cut in the wrong place costs you a second attempt rather than the recording. Nothing is re-transcribed — it works from the transcript Oris already made, so a three-way split is seconds rather than minutes.
-
A settings window you can read
Oris's settings moved off a cramped strip of seven tabs and onto a left rail, the way System Settings does it — one row per section, the one you're on filled in ember. Everything inside sits in grouped boxes now, on one rhythm: every row is one, two or three steps of a single height, every label lines up in a column, and every control sits on the window's right edge instead of floating mid-row. Radio buttons became dropdowns, and all of them are now the same dropdown. Providers became a single list — a switch and a drag handle per provider, the ones you've turned on sorted above the ones you haven't, each opening to its own key, model and Test button, and reordering now actually moves under your cursor instead of jumping when you let go. Changing where your notes land is a dropdown on its own row rather than a sheet, and it applies as you choose it — no confirm step, and Apple Notes is set up right there too. Hotkeys are recorded with one click, confirm themselves with a check mark, and clear with ⌫. And every text field in the window now behaves the same way — click away and the cursor leaves and the value sticks, Return commits, Escape puts back what was there. Two fixes worth naming: your Apple Notes folder no longer reads "Choose…" after a restart, and recording a shortcut that is already in use no longer sets it off while you are typing it. Deleting a template you made takes two clicks. And there is a search that finds any setting by name, wherever it lives: it sits in the rail's footer with ⌘F printed on it, matches the section, the tab, the text behind each ⓘ hint and the words a setting used to be called — so "structured notes" still finds Decisions & action items — and takes you straight there, highlighting the row so you can see which one it meant. Buttons are in there too. The same ⌘F opens the search in your recordings history.
-
Model downloads stop leaving a second copy behind
Downloading an on-device model used to leave a full-size duplicate of it in your Mac's temporary folder, where it stayed until the next restart — several gigabytes per model, and more every time Oris reached for a bigger one. That copy is now cleared as soon as the model lands, and copies left by earlier versions are cleaned up when Oris starts — only ever a file Oris can prove is a duplicate of a model already in your cache and that nothing has touched for hours, since that folder is shared with every app on your Mac. Nothing about the models themselves changes; you just get the disk space back.
-
The auto-stop warning no longer repeats itself · minor
If your warn-before time was as long as (or longer than) the auto-stop itself, Oris could tell you it was about to stop over and over during a quiet stretch instead of once. It now shortens the warning automatically so it still means something, and says so in the Recordings tab if your saved value needed it.
-
Settings that read as tasks, with providers in a place of their own
Oris's settings are now seven sections — General, Transcription, Summaries, Providers, Recordings, Quick Notes and Dictation — so your provider and keys have a page of their own instead of sitting under the summary toggles, dictation is no longer buried under quick notes, and the on-device model is a menu of the three models Oris ships (or a custom one) instead of a blank field. Labels say what they do (Offer to record meetings, Decisions & action items, Enable quick notes, Keep audio for … days, On this Mac), every on/off setting is a switch to the left of its label that turns green when it's on (in dark mode too), Pro settings carry a Pro badge and nothing else, the recording hotkey moved beside the meeting toggle under General, and the explanations that used to fill the page sit behind a small ⓘ beside each setting. Nothing about how your settings are saved or what they do has changed.
-
Meeting detection is back on
Detect meetings is back on: since 0.10 it learned to notice a call on any microphone rather than only the one your Mac is set to use, to ask again when you rejoin a call, to see FaceTime and browser calls, and to offer your templates on the notification — and it was checked against real Meet, Zoom, Teams and Webex calls before the switch went back.
-
Other audio fades down while you speak a quick note
Music or a video playing through your speakers now fades to a quarter of its volume while a quick note or dictation is capturing and fades back the moment you stop, so you no longer pause it by hand. Your own volume changes during a capture are left alone, and a meeting recording is never affected. On by default; switch it off under Settings → General → While you speak.
-
An override for the lid-closed recording guard · minor
Oris refuses to start a recording when your lid is closed and the audio output is still your built-in speakers, since system audio can't be captured in that state. If you've confirmed your particular docked setup actually captures fine, setting ORIS_CLAMSHELL_GUARD=warn turns that refusal into a warning instead, so the recording proceeds.
-
Meeting detection watches every microphone · minor
Detect meetings used to watch only the microphone your Mac was set to use, so a call that picked a different one — the built-in mic while a USB mic was your default, say — went unnoticed. It now watches whether any microphone is in use — one of the three fixes checked against real Meet, Zoom, Teams and Webex calls before Detect meetings was switched back on.
-
Rejoining a call asks again · minor
When an app lets go of your microphone and takes it again — leaving a call and rejoining it, say — Oris asks again instead of staying quiet, at most twice a minute for any one app. It used to ask a second time at most and never a third.
-
Meeting detection learns FaceTime and browser calls · minor
The rule behind Detect meetings now notices a FaceTime call and a meeting held in a browser tab, which the earlier app-name check missed entirely, and it asks once per app rather than once per stretch of microphone use — so a notification you ignored can no longer use up the one another app's real meeting would have got.
-
The meeting prompt takes a template
Detect meetings' "Meeting started — record it?" notification can now start the recording in the shape you want, offering Start recording plus up to three of the templates you already put on the menu bar, so saying yes and picking the note are one gesture. Closing the notification is "no", and it no longer outlives the meeting — Oris takes it back once the app that raised it has let go of your mic for a couple of minutes, so a prompt from this morning can't start a recording this afternoon.
-
Close the “audio kept” message without quitting Oris
The message that appears when a quick note fails and Oris keeps your audio now has a close button and dismisses when you click it — it used to stay on screen until you quit the app. Left alone it clears itself after ten minutes, unless Oris couldn't record the kept path anywhere else, in which case it waits for you.
-
Oris can start when you log in
The setup tour now offers to launch Oris at login, so your hotkeys, dictation and the menu bar icon are live after a restart without you remembering to open anything — it starts quietly in the menu bar rather than opening a window. Turn it on or off any time under Settings → General → Startup.
-
Detect meetings is switched off for now
Meeting detection wasn't reliably noticing when a call started, so this release switches it off rather than leave a setting that quietly does nothing — the toggle stays where it is and says so, and it comes back once detection is dependable.
-
More reliable USB microphone recording · minor
Fixes failed recordings from some USB microphones, including stereo webcam inputs, across dictation, quick notes and meetings.
-
Dictate into any app
Hold a hotkey, say the sentence, let go, and the words land at the cursor in whatever app you were typing in — Slack, Mail, a terminal, a browser form — transcribed on your Mac like a quick note, and with a recorder kept waiting it starts listening about as fast as you can press the key. Part of Oris Pro, free in beta: switch it on under Dictation on the Quick Notes tab.
-
Your own dictation no longer sets off the meeting prompt
Detect meetings now checks which app is holding your microphone rather than only whether something is, so dictating a message, taking a quick note or asking Siri stays quiet even with Zoom or Teams open in the background — and a real call is still noticed the moment the meeting app takes the mic.
-
The menu bar shows when a quick note or dictation is listening
The Oris mark in your menu bar now turns blue while a quick note is capturing and purple while you are dictating, alongside the red it already showed for a meeting, and the menu's first line names which — so a hotkey press that left the microphone open is visible from anywhere instead of only in the capture window.
-
The same notes folder, wherever you start a recording · minor
If your notes folder is configured with a ~ home-folder shortcut, Oris used to read it differently depending on whether the recording started from Obsidian, the menu bar or the command line, so transcripts could land in two different places. Every part of Oris now reads it the same way.
-
A denied microphone no longer reports a started recording · minor
If you deny the microphone prompt on a first recording, or the audio setup fails, Oris now says so instead of inserting "Recording started" into your note and leaving a recording that never existed: the start waits for the recorder to actually be capturing before it reports success.
-
Quick notes stop claiming to prepare a model that's already loaded · minor
With the default speech engine, the capture window no longer flips from "Transcribing…" to "Preparing model…" on an ordinary quick note or dictation: Oris now knows its model finished loading while you were still speaking, so that label appears only while a model is genuinely loading or downloading.
-
A summary retry that can't run tells you why · minor
Retrying a failed summary from the Recordings history no longer ends in a spinner and an unchanged row when the retry is refused, for example on a recording that belongs to a vault Oris no longer points at, or when the note's transcript block can't be found: the row says what happened, and the retry's output lands in the transcription log.
-
A renamed note wins over a new note at its old name · minor
If you rename the note you're recording into and then start a fresh note at the old name, the transcript now follows the marker to the renamed note instead of landing at the end of the new one.
-
Updating Oris now updates the menu bar helper too · minor
After an update the menu bar icon runs the new version straight away, instead of the previous build's helper quietly staying up until the next login.
-
Re-summarize keeps structured notes · minor
With structured notes on, re-summarizing a recording now re-extracts its Decisions and Action Items instead of replacing them with plain prose, and the recording's structured badge stays put.
-
Open and Share follow a re-routed note to where it landed · minor
After you re-route a delivery that failed, the recording's Open and Share now reach the note at its new destination instead of going dark or opening the old note that only held the placeholder.
-
The closed-lid check actually refuses to record · minor
With the lid shut and the built-in speakers as your output, the system-audio track would have been silent; Oris now really does stop the recording before it starts and lists the outputs you can switch to, which the check was meant to do all along. For now it recognises the built-in speakers by their English device name.
-
A recording that is still transcribing is no longer reported as orphaned · minor
Reloading the Obsidian plugin right after a long meeting no longer warns that its marker is orphaned while the transcript is still on its way, and the recovery command waits for a running transcription instead of starting a second one.
-
Re-check permissions waits its turn during a quick note · minor
Running the permission re-check while a quick note was recording, or while a meeting recording was still starting, used to launch a second recorder and play its test chimes into your capture. It now declines with a short message and asks you to finish first.
-
Quit Oris from the menu bar right after starting a recording now actually stops it · minor
If you chose Quit Oris in the first second of a recording you had just started from the menu bar, the stop could be silently skipped and Oris stayed open with the recording running. It now waits for the launch to finish, stops the recording, and quits as promised.
-
Clicking Record twice in Obsidian no longer pastes a warning into your note · minor
While a recording is still starting, a second press of the ribbon, hotkey or status pill now just says so, instead of dropping an "already in progress" line into your note or launching a second recorder that fails a moment later.
-
Quitting during a slow quick note no longer cancels your logout · minor
If a quick note is still transcribing when you log out, shut down, or quit Oris, Oris now waits its 20 seconds and then lets the quit through, keeping the audio and noting where it is, instead of cancelling the quit and staying open.
-
Retry and Re-summarize refuse a note they can't patch safely · minor
If a recording's summary block is no longer in the shape Oris wrote — the heading was lost, or the collapsed transcript was edited — Retry and Re-summarize now leave the note exactly as it is and say so, instead of tucking a second summary inside the first and hiding the notes beneath it.
-
Your own short remarks next to a pause no longer vanish when the mic starts late · minor
When the microphone came up a second or more after system audio, Oris measured your silences on the wrong clock and could drop a brief remark of yours right before a pause while keeping a phantom inside it. Both clocks now agree, so the transcript keeps what you said and drops what you didn't.
-
Re-summarize a recording with your own instructions
A Re-summarize button on a Markdown recording that still has its audio and a finished summary: add a line of context, tone or focus, and Oris rewrites just that note's summary, leaving the transcript untouched.
-
A small Lifetime badge sits beside the Pro chip · minor
Lifetime licenses show a small Lifetime badge next to the Pro chip in the title bar, and Settings reads "Oris Pro, lifetime" for them.
-
Copy your own referral link from the Help menu · minor
After you sign up or re-activate, “Get My Referral Link” appears in the Help menu and puts your personal link on the clipboard, ready to share.
-
Oris can notice a meeting has started
Turn on Detect meetings in General, with Oris Pro, and Oris offers to record when your microphone goes live with a conferencing app open — one notification per stretch of microphone use, and the recording only begins if you click it.
-
Search and page through your recordings · minor
The full recordings list now opens 50 at a time with a Show more control, and a search field plus a status filter narrow it to the recording you're actually looking for.
-
A keyboard shortcut for starting a recording
Set a Start recording hotkey on the Quick Notes tab and a meeting begins from any app, with the same key ending it — it makes the same destination and template choices clicking Start makes, and it isn't a Pro feature.
-
Enable summaries can be switched back on · minor
Turning summaries off no longer greys out the Enable summaries checkbox itself; only the summary settings below it go quiet until you switch it back on.
-
Setup shows the real Apple Notes automation state, and ↻ re-checks it · minor
If the Apple Notes permission goes away while Oris is running, the Setup card's ↻ re-reads it and offers the button that fixes it, and the deliveries that were waiting go out as soon as you grant it again.
-
The (i) on an awaiting-delivery row shows its details again · minor
Clicking the info button beside a recording that hasn't landed yet opens the delivery's state, destination, error and ids instead of an empty panel.
-
Help → Show menu bar icon · minor
If the Oris mark isn't in your menu bar, Help → Show menu bar icon relaunches it and a line under Setup says whether it's running — a crowded bar on a Mac with a notch, or a menu bar manager, is usually what was hiding it.
-
Close the window, keep the hotkey — Oris now lives in the menu bar
Closing the Oris window or pressing ⌘Q now hides Oris instead of quitting it: it keeps running in the menu bar, so the Quick Note hotkey keeps working and Apple Notes deliveries keep landing with nothing on screen. Click Oris in the Dock or choose Open Oris from the menu bar icon to bring the window back. Quit Oris from that icon, or Quit on the Dock tile, is what quits it, taking the menu bar icon with it either way — the menu bar's Quit stops a running recording first, while the Dock's Quit asks and lets you keep it running.
-
The menu bar icon holds still — colour says whether you're recording · minor
The Oris mark in the menu bar now keeps one size and changes only its colour: red while recording, ember while your note is being made. Its menu says the rest in one line, and the elapsed-time counter beside the icon is a Show recording timer toggle that starts off, so nothing in the bar moves and a shared screen doesn't show a running timer.

-
Start a recording straight into a template, from the menu bar or a hotkey
Oris Pro turns the menu bar's Start recording into a submenu, so a call can begin already set to the template you want — a 1:1, a stand-up, whatever fits. Bind a global hotkey to any of your templates besides Standard, under Settings → Summarization → Note templates, and it starts a recording with that template chosen, no menu required — press it again to stop.
-
Code spans no longer turn into links, and emphasis pairs correctly · minor
Something that looked like a link or a note reference inside inline code — set off by backticks — could render as a live link instead of staying as plain code, and certain runs of bold and italic asterisks could pair the wrong way. Both now render the way your note's Markdown expects.
-
Copy My Usage Summary moved to the Help menu · minor
The "Copy my usage summary" action has moved off the General tab into the Help menu, next to Send Feedback — same content-free counts to your clipboard and prefilled email draft, just out of the way of everyday settings.
-
Oris Pro is here — free while we're in beta
A new Oris Pro banner in the app lets you sign up with just your email. Click the confirmation link Oris sends you and Pro turns on — no payment, nothing to install. Pro is free for the whole beta, and everyone who signs up now gets three months on us once pricing starts.
-
Changing your destination is a single screen now
Where your notes go — an Obsidian vault, a Markdown folder, or Apple Notes — now has its own Destination section under Settings → General, with a single pick-and-Save screen instead of re-running the whole setup walkthrough. If you switch away from a destination that still has notes on the way, Oris tells you how many are left and keeps delivering them.
-
Oris cleans up leftover quick-note audio on its own
When a quick note fails to transcribe or deliver, Oris keeps the audio around in case you need it — that leftover audio is now covered by the same retention setting as your meeting recordings (90 days by default), checked every time you start a new quick note.
-
Note templates and structured notes arrive — the first Oris Pro features
Choose the shape of your summaries with six built-in templates or your own sections and style, and turn on structured notes to make each extracted Decision and Action Item carry a verbatim transcript quote you can check it against — both live under Settings → Summarization and unlock through the Oris Pro banner in the app.
-
Emails link to Oris on X and YouTube · minor
Confirmation and license emails now include links to Oris on X and YouTube alongside the site link in the footer.
-
The window no longer freezes while Oris talks to Apple Notes
Choosing an Apple Notes folder, opening a note, or delivering one used to lock the Oris window for as long as Notes took to answer — long enough on a large folder that the spinner beside the message could not even turn. That work now happens in a small helper process, so the window stays responsive and Oris can give up on a wedged Notes instead of waiting on it.
-
See more of what you actually use in Oris · minor
The "Your Oris" card now shows a running breakdown of everything you've done with Oris — meetings, quick notes, imports, and retries — and Help → Copy My Usage Summary lets you attach those numbers when you write in.
-
"Open Apple Notes" during setup opens the right folder · minor
Skipping ahead to Apple Notes during setup now opens the exact account and folder you just configured, instead of wherever Notes was last left open.
-
Setup's Continue button looks right whether it's ready or not · minor
The Continue button during setup now matches Oris's other primary-action buttons — clearly filled when it's ready, still visible (just dimmed) when it's waiting on you — instead of fading to a barely-there outline.
-
Unsubscribing sticks · minor
If you'd unsubscribed from Oris emails, filling out the signup form again can no longer quietly resubscribe you.
-
Quick notes land faster — the speech model loads while you talk
The recommended engine used to start loading its model only once you stopped speaking, which added several seconds to every note. Oris now begins that work the moment you start recording, so for anything longer than a few seconds the model is ready by the time you finish and only the transcription itself is left.
-
The Quick Notes panel now says what the speech engine is actually doing
While a note was landing, the panel would announce that it was downloading the speech model for the first time — on every note, whether or not anything was being downloaded. It now reports what the engine is really doing, so you see it preparing, downloading, or waiting for another transcription to finish only when that is what is happening.
-
Switching the Quick Notes speech engine no longer needs a relaunch
Changing the Speech engine setting only took effect the next time Oris started, so switching between engines to compare them appeared to do nothing at all. The setting is now read at the start of every capture, so the engine you pick transcribes your very next quick note.
-
Quick Notes transcribe more reliably — meetings and quick notes now share an engine
Some external microphones — broadcast- and podcast-style USB mics especially — could make quick notes come out garbled, and a mis-heard note looks just like an ordinary one. Oris now transcribes quick notes with the same engine meetings use, which handled every microphone we tested cleanly. A new Speech engine setting, on the renamed Quick Notes tab, lets you switch to a faster engine if you're on a built-in mic or AirPods.
-
Every email now carries an unsubscribe link · minor
Confirmation emails include a one-click unsubscribe in the footer, matching what the privacy page promises.

Ask the handbook anything
Press ⌘K anywhere on orisnotes.com to search the handbook instantly — or ask a question and watch a cited answer stream in.
-
Clicking an old notification finally works — macOS was dropping it
A notification clicked minutes or hours later used to vanish into a bare app launch: macOS only hands the click to a live listener, and ours was long gone. Oris now journals every banner it posts and reconstructs the click on launch — the right note opens, and in the one case two dismissed banners genuinely can't be told apart, Oris opens the Recordings tab instead of guessing. One meeting also now means one notification — the "open Oris to finish delivery" banner only appears when Oris is actually closed, and clicking it opens Oris on the Recordings tab.
-
A recovered quick note cleans up after itself · minor
When a capture lands in a replacement note (after the original was moved or deleted), the failed first attempt now retires itself — no lingering red "delivery failed" row for a note that actually arrived.
-
Notes formatting artifacts are gone from delivered notes · minor
The "Summarized by" line no longer shows stray asterisks, and the audio line no longer breaks mid-filename — every note delivered to Apple Notes renders clean, including emphasis inside links.
-
A landed quick note retires the failed attempts behind it · minor
Manually sending a held capture now retires the older failed attempts behind it, instead of leaving them to independently land a second copy of the same words later.
-
The first delivery on a new Mac no longer waits for a relaunch · minor
On a Mac that had never delivered a note before, the first queued delivery could sit in Awaiting delivery until Oris was reopened — the hand-off was watching for a change in a folder that did not exist yet, so nothing told it the work had arrived. It watches from the start now, and the first one lands like every one after it.
-
Clicking a notification works whenever you get to it
The groundwork for late notification clicks: what a click should open now rides on the notification itself instead of living in a short-lived helper's memory. The Aug 13 entry above finishes the job for clicks that arrive after everything has exited.
-
Quick notes keep landing after you move the note they go into · minor
Moving the note your quick notes append to out of its folder — or pointing Oris at a different folder — used to stop them reaching Apple Notes at all: every capture was held in Oris with a message about folder policy and no way to send it on. Oris now looks for the note inside the folder you chose, makes a fresh one when there isn't one, and leaves the note you moved exactly as it is.
-
Folder pickers start somewhere sensible · minor
The setup Browse panels for a vault or Markdown folder now open at your current selection — or at Documents on a first pick — instead of wherever your Mac's last Open panel happened to be, which was often Downloads.
-
One slow Apple Notes call no longer strands the deliveries behind it · minor
When Apple Notes is briefly busy, the notes queued behind it are checked again on the next pass instead of being set aside for you to sort out by hand.
-
Quick notes collected across days now say which day each one was · minor
A pinned or weekly quick-notes note used to fill with time-only lines that all looked like today; each line now carries the day it was spoken, while the per-day note stays as it was — the date is already its title.
-
Deliveries parked by the Apple Notes permission resume on their own
If a note queued while Oris wasn't allowed to control Apple Notes — the permission switched off, or reset — turning the permission back on and reopening Oris is now enough: everything that was waiting delivers by itself, including an attempt that was cut off mid-write, which Oris first checks against the note so nothing lands twice.
-
Setup can't skip past an unfinished destination · minor
The walkthrough's Continue button now waits until the destination you picked is actually set up, the Apple Notes permission row leads with the button that fixes what it reports — granting access, or opening the right System Settings pane and re-checking when you return — and the quick-note settings name the real way to change where notes land.
-
Transcription works fully offline once the model is on disk
A cached transcription model now loads without touching the network, so a recording stopped on a plane, behind captive-portal Wi-Fi, or during an ISP blip transcribes exactly like one on a healthy connection — and when a model genuinely does need downloading, the status bar says so instead of sitting on “preparing”.
-
Stuck deliveries knock, and delivered quick notes open in Apple Notes · minor
When a capture can't be delivered and ends up waiting, Oris now posts one notification — it's saved in Oris, and clicking brings you to the queue — instead of leaving the Recordings badge to be discovered by accident. And a quick note that already landed in Apple Notes offers Open in Apple Notes, taking you straight to the note it went to.
-
Quick notes and Apple Notes agree on where a capture lives · minor
A quick note held in Oris now marks itself sent the moment it reaches your Notes note — pressing Send again can't make a second copy — the Recordings tab shows a count whenever captures are still waiting to deliver, and the Voice tab names the Notes folder and note your quick notes actually append to.
-
Your meetings, straight into Apple Notes
Apple Notes is a destination now, alongside an Obsidian vault and a folder of Markdown files. Pick the account and folder during setup — Oris reads them from Notes, marks shared folders as shared, and asks for the one macOS permission it needs behind an explainer rather than in the middle of a delivery. Meetings arrive as a note in that folder, quick notes append to a note a day or to one note you name, and Open note takes you to it. Because macOS grants that permission to the app, a recording finished while Oris is closed is saved and shows as awaiting delivery, then lands on its own when you open Oris — never as a note that doesn't exist yet.
-
Record a meeting without Obsidian
Oris can now capture, transcribe, and deliver a meeting entirely on its own: a record strip in the app starts and stops the recording, shows where the note will land, and opens it when it's ready. During setup you choose the destination — an Obsidian vault as before, or any folder of Markdown files, with notes named by a date-time-title pattern or appended to one note. Existing Obsidian setups carry over untouched.
-
A failed summary is recoverable without Obsidian
When a summary fails on a recording you made without Obsidian, retrying now finds the note Oris created for you and patches it, instead of leaving the summary in a file beside the audio and calling that a success. If the note genuinely can't be found, the retry says so and keeps the failure, so the retry stays available — and the note and its notifications now point at the app's Recordings tab rather than an editor or a terminal command you may not have.
-
A note recorded from Obsidian still lands in your folder
If you record from the Obsidian plugin while your destination is a Markdown folder, the transcript now lands there instead of waiting in the outbox. A folder has no cursor to insert at, so the destination decides: a new file under your naming pattern, or the end of the single note you chose to append to, exactly as that destination always places a note. The marker in the note you were typing in stays behind as an invisible comment you can delete, and the completion notification names the file that was actually written. The same applies when you import a transcript into a note you already have open.
-
Start your next meeting without clearing the last one · minor
When a recording finished, the "Notes ready" message took the record button's place in the app's strip, so starting a second meeting meant finding a small ✕ to clear it first. A finished run no longer takes that place: its message and "Open note" button now sit beside the record button, and a run that failed puts its message there the same way, so either way the next meeting is one click away and starting it clears the finished one.
-
The tour teaches the setup you actually chose · minor
The optional tour Oris offers at the end of setup now matches your destination. If your notes go to a Markdown folder, it shows you the app's own record strip and the retry that lives in Recordings, instead of sending you to Obsidian's ribbon icon and command palette for software you may not have installed. An Obsidian vault still gets the same set of cards it had before.
-
See what's still waiting to land · minor
When a transcript is saved but couldn't be written into its note, the Recordings tab now shows it under "Awaiting delivery" — what's waiting, where it was going, and why — with a retry button, and a "Mark delivered" answer for the rare case where Oris asks you to check the note instead of risking a duplicate.
July 2026
-
A changelog you can link to
Everything Oris has shipped now lives on one page — every user-visible change in plain language, newest first, at orisnotes.com/changelog.
-
Your transcript can no longer go missing
Finished transcripts and notes are saved durably before they go into your note, and every landing is recorded — so if a write fails mid-meeting, the transcript waits in an outbox instead of vanishing, the recordings history says exactly what happened, and one click delivers the saved copy. Never twice: a retry that already landed is recognized and skipped.
-
Models ready means the model you picked · minor
Changing the transcription model in Settings now updates the readiness check and the warmup immediately, so "Models ready" and "Prepare models" reflect the model you chose instead of the one Oris shipped with.
-
System audio that survives your audio interface
When the device you play sound through also has inputs of its own, like a USB audio interface or a dock with a built-in microphone, Oris now works out which stream is the meeting and records that one, so the others track holds what the other side said rather than nothing at all.
-
Hi-res output devices no longer stop a recording
Playing through a device that runs above 48 kHz, like a hi-res DAC or a headphone jack set to a high sample rate, used to end the recorder the instant it launched while everything on screen still showed a live recording. Oris now records at the highest rate it can encode and leaves your device's own setting alone.
-
The other side, recorded at its real speed
When the device you play sound through runs at a different rate than Oris first read, the meeting audio was captured slightly fast or slow, and the transcript inherited it. Oris now re-reads that rate at every point it can have moved, including a device you change part-way through a recording.
-
It tells you when the other side isn't landing · minor
If the meeting audio can't be written for a whole session — the failure that leaves the others track empty while everything else looks healthy — Oris now says so while it is still happening, instead of finishing as though the recording worked.
-
Safer on a shared Mac · minor
The working files Oris keeps between recordings name the notes and audio it is handling, so they are now readable only by your own account — quiet under-the-hood tightening, with nothing to change in settings.
-
Notifications that don't go quietly missing
If macOS notifications are off for Oris, setup now says so and links you straight to the setting instead of finishing as though everything worked — and nothing asks for the permission behind your back, so the one prompt macOS grants always arrives where you can answer it.
-
Meetings take the microphone · minor
Starting a meeting recording while a quick note is running hands the mic straight to the meeting, so the two can never fight over it — Oris cancels the quick note within about a second and says why, instead of filing a fragment you never chose to end on.
-
Quick Note
Press a hotkey anywhere on your Mac, say the thing, and the transcribed text lands where you told it to: an inbox inside Oris, a note you pin, or a daily or weekly note in your vault.
-
Hold to talk, or press to start · minor
Quick Note's hotkey works either way — press once to start and again to stop, or hold it while you speak and let go when you're done.
-
A reader for your quick notes
A two-pane window lists the quick notes Oris is keeping for you, grouped by day, and shows the selected one in full — with one click to send it to your vault, copy it, reveal it, or delete it.
-
Optional AI tidy-up for dictated notes
Turn it on and quick notes arrive with punctuation and capitals and without the filler words — checked against the raw transcript, and discarded in favor of it whenever that check isn't satisfied.
-
Settings that save themselves · minor
The Save button is gone — every setting persists the moment you change it, and saving no longer reverts a value you edited somewhere else.
-
A heads-up when a bigger model is on its way
Long recordings summarize with a larger on-device model that downloads on first use — Oris now tells you that's happening instead of looking stuck.
-
Safer summary retries in busy notes · minor
Retrying a failed summary in a note holding several recordings can no longer touch a neighboring recording's text — the retry now verifies exactly which block it owns before writing.
-
Clearer setup while Obsidian loads the plugin · minor
The setup walkthrough now says it's waiting for Obsidian instead of suggesting a re-install that isn't needed.
-
Clearer tabs in the Oris window · minor
The app's section tabs now pair icons with labels, so General, Transcription, Summarization, and Recordings are one glance away.
-
A history of every recording
The Recordings tab now remembers your past recordings — duration, word count, talk split, and whether the summary landed — with a full history and one-click retry, and the same stats now show up right in your completion notification.
-
Release notes, right in the updater · minor
When Oris offers an update, the what's-new list now appears directly in the update window instead of behind a link.
-
The recording button shows what it's doing · minor
The Obsidian ribbon icon now switches to a recording state while you're live, and becomes a stop button on hover — no more guessing whether Oris is listening.
-
A roadmap you can read
This page — a public look at what we're building next, what just shipped, and a place to tell us what you'd like to see.
-
See your notification status at a glance
Oris now shows whether it can send you a heads-up when a note lands, so you're never left wondering if a recording finished quietly in the background.
-
Bring in an existing recording
Point Oris at a Voice Memo, or a Zoom or Teams export, and it transcribes and summarizes it into a note — no need to re-record.
-
Stops itself when the room goes quiet
An optional setting ends a recording after a stretch of silence, so a meeting that wraps early doesn't keep capturing an empty room.
-
Fresher stats · minor
Your Oris now updates more reliably, so the numbers you glance at reflect what you've actually recorded.
-
Safer imports
Importing an existing audio file is now more careful about how it handles the file on disk — quiet under-the-hood hardening so bringing in a Voice Memo or a Zoom export stays safe.
June 2026
-
Transcribe in your language
Pick a language for transcription, or leave it on auto-detect and let Oris work out what's being spoken.
-
Updates that arrive on their own
New versions download and install quietly in the background, so you're always on the latest Oris without hunting for a download.
-
A guided first run
A short walkthrough sets up your vault, the plugin, and permissions the first time you open Oris, so you get to your first note without guesswork.
-
Summaries, on your Mac by default
Every note gets a short summary generated on-device — or plug in your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, or Azure key if you'd rather use a cloud model.
-
Faster on-device transcription
Recordings are transcribed natively on your Mac with Apple's WhisperKit — no upload, no waiting on a server.
May 2026
-
Retry a summary that didn't land
If a summary fails — a cloud key expired, say — the transcript still lands in your note, and one command retries just the summary once things are fixed.
-
Decide how long recordings stick around · minor
Set how many days Oris keeps the underlying audio after a note is written, so old recordings clean themselves up on your terms.
-
The transcript lands where you were
Start a recording and keep working — the finished transcript drops in at the spot you marked, even if you've moved around the note since.
-
Knows you from everyone else
Oris records your mic and the room's audio on separate tracks, so the transcript labels what you said versus what others said.
-
A recording light in your menu bar · minor
A small menu-bar indicator shows when Oris is recording and how long it's been running — a quiet reminder that it's on.
